    A better choice for backpacking in warmer climates, the Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Trekker sleeping pad adds a level of comfort and durability to this already lightweight air mattress.

    • Therm-a-Rest combines advanced, patent-pending technology and material with decades of experience to offer a lightweight, warm and incredibly compactible sleeping pad
    • Offering twice the warmth of other uninsulated sleeping pads, internal baffling reduces convection heat loss between a warm body and cold ground much like a dual-pane window
    • Innovative baffling also creates an internal truss system that minimizes the movement of air; shift less and rest better!
    • Supple, yet rugged 75-denier textured polyester fabric on top and a durable 100-denier polyester on the bottom provide a quiet sleep surface
    • Thermal efficiency without added down or fiber insulation saves weight and allows the Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Trekker to pack down small; stuff sack is included

    Please note: Therm-a-Rest products can only be shipped to U.S. addresses.

    Made in USA.

        Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Trekker Sleeping Pad:

        I bought this sleeping pad for my wife to use because she has always wanted me to pack a blow-up mattress for her while backpacking, despite my explaining how much those things weigh.

        We currently have the Thermarest Trail Lite sleeping pads and she would complain that she could feel the ground when she slept on her side. I was looking at the Thermarest NeoAir when it came out, but I kept reading reviews of them leaking down in the middle of the night; then I saw the NeoAir Trekker (large). It is 21 ounces lighter than our Trail Lite, and compresses so much I can easily store it inside our packs. No more strapping those bulky pads to the side of our packs! I was also pleased with the fact that it came with it's own stuff sack. I had one last test in store for the Trekker -- the wife test. When the package came in, I inflated the pad, which isn't that bad to inflate if you do it in sections. I'd give 5 or 6 good long breaths, then close the valve and do something else for a few. There's really no need to get light-headed trying to blow it up all at once, but you could if you had to with minimal jaw cramping.

        Now it was time for the test. I couldn't wait for my wife to get home, so I stretched out and could tell instantly that Thermarest had knocked this one out of the park. I'm 6' 270 lbs, and while lying on my side, I couldn't feel the ground. I knew there was no way my 5'9" 140 lb wife would feel any discomfort.

        The expression on her face told the story when she finally got home and tried it for herself. "Oh, this is good", she exclaimed! She finally got her blow-up mattress.

        More durable than neo air

        Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Trekker Sleeping Pad:

        I bought the trekker after my ultra light neo air continually popped on me leaving me cold and uncomfortable all night. So far my experience with the trekker has been significantly better. You can feel the difference in the fabric. The traditional neo air is so light because the fabric is so thin and also a bit sticky (this is to prevent you from slipping) but this results in constant punctures. Just to note, I always used the neo air in a clean tent.

        The trekker has a rugged cloth fabric like other therma rest self inflating mattresses. You can expect much better results from the more durable mattress.

        The trekker is 6 ounces heavier than the original neo air. This six ounces is well worth the extra weight. Dealing with a leaking air mattress in the middle of the night can not only be aggravating, but potentially dangerous (the recommended way to spot a puncture is to bring the pad to the river and look for air bubbles).

        Also wanted to mention, my girl has the Big Agnes sleeping pad and it is also excellent quality and has survived 6 different backcountry trips without a single leak. It is slightly narrower than the neo air. I prefer the thermarest because of the horizontal baffles, but the price is about 66% more for essentially the same thing.

          Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Trekker Sleeping Pad:

          Always looking to lighten my load w/o sacrificing comfort or functionality[...] Went to REI recently expecting to buy new Exped air mattress but thinking I would try this one too. Found myself drawn to this one and purchased two, for my wife and me. Comparison: Exped, with traditional lengthwise tubes felt more like a traditional air mattress. This one felt much more like an open cell self-inflating mattress. That is, much firmer and more comfortable. The inflating valve was also like a traditional simple Therma-Rest valve, much easier to use. (The Exped even suggested an extra air pump which would add a few ounces to the weight.) We had it out overnight last weekend in low 30's (it snowed briefly) with 40 degree bags and it was adequate for those conditions. The R2 insulation value seems accurate and this pad is probably not adequate (without adding say a blue pad under it) at temperatures much below that. As for comfort, you would have to use at least a 2 inch open cell self-inflater to match this comfort and those weigh a couple of pounds. I never touched the ground at all no matter how I turned. The 72 inch model is several ounces lighter than the 47 inch open cell Therma-Rest my wife was using and more comfortable. I most recently was using a full length blue pad together with a 47 inch Z-Rest Therma-Rest. (Getting older.) So I didn't save any weight, but gained a world of comfort. Finally, this is easy to inflate and a breeze to deflate, and packs to next to nothing in a small included bag that very easily contains the pad with absolutely no stuffing involved.

          Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Trekker Sleeping Pad:

          Initial report:
          Quantum leap in the evolution of the sleeping pad.
          I've had most every model of Thermo-Rest since the grey closed cell pad (I'm 70+)
          I still backpack 7 or 8 times/yr in the Pac NW.
          I also use my pad nightly on the floor.
          I also use it 2xdaily as a meditation zafu cushion.
          My pack weighs least than 30 pounds;
          even at that I opted for the Luxury Base camp Thermo-Rest weighing 120 oz. Ugh.
          So, with the NeoAir Trekker I've cut 100 oz (that's 6 lbs Folks! Quantum leap!!!)

          Would have gone for the yellow NeoAir (which is a tad lighter and better R-value) had it not been for all the negative reviews about leaks)
          Thanks reviewers.
          The jury is still out on the durability issue.

            Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Trekker Sleeping Pad:

            Just what I was looking for. I almost purchased the origional NeoAir but was hesitant due to the 'crinkle noise' reviews. This model has most the benefits of the Yellow NeoAir but has the regular Thermarest (quiet when you move around) fabric. I opted for the Large Torso that keeps the weight down to 16oz but gives the sleeper a nice wide 25" width. Besides the 2.5" of air between me and the ground, I am also comforted by the peace of mind that the more durable fabric offers. It is well put together and I have used it several trips already. (Less money than the 'Yellow' Model to Boot!)

              Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Trekker Sleeping Pad:

              After 8 years my old Therm-a-Rest died of hard use and old age so I was happy to have a excuse to upgrade. I have a life long habit of early rising and as a member of a wilderness search & rescue unit I use my gear a lot so a good nights sleep in the field is a very high priority to me. After a week of nights on the NeoAir Trekker...a HUGE upgrade on comfort, but beware it will really test any habit to raise early!...it's just flat out comfortable with no "buts". A great balance of size(blown up & compressed), comfort, warmth and well worth the price, especially if you spend a lot of nights in the dirt.

              Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Trekker Sleeping Pad:

              First the pluses: The NeoAir Trekker is a very cushy pad that inflates quickly and at 19 oz is wonderfully light-weight. The material doesn't seem to stretch like cheap air mattresses so it holds its firmness once inflated and the valve doesn't seam to leak at all. It also deflates quickly and packs up tightly. During a recent three-night backpacking excursion in the Olympic Mountains it proved quite durable. However . . .

              Like all uninsulated air mattresses, the NeoAir Trekker does tend to wick away body heat through convection such that by itself, on cold ground, it simply doesn't provide much insulation. So we stuck a closed-cell foam pad underneath then inflated the NeoAir Trekker only minimally (to reduce convection). This improved things quite a bit.

              In the end, what I'd hoped would be a 19 oz sleeping pad solution has turned into a 36 oz hybrid system, albeit a warm and comfortable one. And there is something to be said for having a layer of protection from sharp objects under this rather expensive air pad.

                Packed down smaller than stuff sack that came with it. Takes a while to air up but no big deal so not really a con. Does not "crinkle" when moving around on it. Liked it just fine.

                  Excellent pad from Thermorest. Decided to upgrade for an upcoming Mt Whitney trip this summer. Tried it out in Yosemite this weekend and I am very impressed. This pad is warm, stable and comfortable.

                    Comments about Therm-a-Rest NeoAir Trekker Sleeping Pad:

                    I had the older NeoAir, you know, the yellow one. Well, it developed 4+ holes in it from packing it in the stuff sack. The problem with that one was that the seams were melted together and that melting caused some areas to be jagged and sharp. So, every time I packed it down it would rub against itself and cause pinholes. Sucked.

                    I was totally hesitant to get the trekker. I kept thinking it would be just as prone to failure. BUT, it's pretty dang nice! 1000 times more durable in my opinion.

                    CONS:
                    The fraking stuff sack sucks, it's huge for the pad. So when you get the pad all nice and tight and stuff it in the sack, it just expands again. They could have made the stuff sack smaller.

                    Other than that, it rocks!
